YWCA Union Vespers Planned Suspenseful French
At Methodist Student Center *' f, ,, , All) European Study
KKV GEORGE WESLEY IONE8
The Longwood College Y.W.C.A. each year sponsors several Union Ves- per Programs. Each one of these programs is under the leadership of one of the church {TOO) m campus. Union Vesper Program will be held tonight at 6:45 p.m. at the Methodist
Student Center.
Union Vespers will be under the supervision of the Wesley Foundation and will be directed by the Rev. George Wesley Jones, pastor of the Farmville United Methodist Church, who will speak on "A Contemporary Service of Worship." Mr. Jones came to this church in June 1968 after serving five years as the Chaplain and Minis- ter of the college church at Ferrum Junior College. Mr. Jones has also served other churches in the Vir- ginia Methodist Conference.
Hymns and prayers that speak the language of our day and help us to be honest in our worship of God will be used in the service. In commenting on the service Mr. Jones said: "In the hymns we shall sing about life as we know it and feel it; in the prayers we shall talk to God in openness and sincerity; and then we shall listen for God to speak to us in the light of our times and our need of Him. Thus the worship time will be for us, not a time to leave our daily concerns out- side the door while we come in and worship, but rather a time when we bring all our concerns into the pres- ence of God and seek His light and power for us."
Everyone is invited to come and experience a new form of worship.
By ANNE BECHT If you want to see a really good
movie, then don't miss "The Sleeping Car Murder," one of the top suspense pictures of the year! This classic will run March 12-14 (Wed.-Fri.) andagain March 17-18 (Mon.-Tues.) at Jeffers Auditorium.
Billed as a psychological murder mystery, the attraction tells the tense and exciting story of murder aboard the Marseille to Paris express. An un- known killer stalks Paris and the multiple killings mount in Seven Arts Pictures' "The Sleeping Car Murder." High on the killer's list is Simone Signoret, portraying a fading actress, and Catherine Allegret (Miss Signoret's daughter), cast as a young traveler who is an innocent bystander caught in a killer's trap. In hot pursuit is dedicated detective Yves Montand (Miss Signoret's husband), who sifts the maze of clues that lead to the surprising ending.
Patronize this and other French films (with English subtitles), and sup- port the summer study program in Europe.
Sometimes death comes as a friend . . .sometimes as an enemy. . .but to the people in the sleeping car death came as a stranger. . .unknown. . . unexpected. . .unstoppable! Don't miss this thriller!

School Spirit? Spint-n spir'it-8 Enthusiastic loyalty; as in school spirit This
is how spirit i in Webster's New World dictionary, but spirit ran be synonamous with many ideas For example, participating in school activities such as the upcoming A A Field Day, Geist festivals, or just being a spectator at a basketball game and supporting our team It doesn't take much time or skill to show a little school spirit, and everyone 'on do it One of the maior complaints about activities at Longwood is thot the same small group is in charge of everything, and the mam cause of that is nobody else shows enough interest to put in the time ond energy. So how about it? This is your school too"

Swinging 70's
I ast weekend the |unior class celebrated its annual ring dance hampered by fifteen inches of snow But despite ominous weather,
i lance certainly deserved recommendation Many girls were left stranded without dates at the last minute because of dangerous road conditions The trip from dorm-to-Lankford in even- inq dresses posed even more problems The Tarns were (behind) schedule thing', looked bleak after weeks and weeks of planning
Alos' Hard wrk and effort payed off for the class of '70 The fums Jrew a record-setting crowd The figure was lovely- ond the buffet following the dance certainly set the mood for the "Days of Wine and Roses "
Dr Willett, particularly, deserves a special note of thanks His concern for all his qirls can only be compared to a father's love for Ins family His delight upon receiving the portrait Susan Davenport painted, was, in itself, rewarding
Congratulations to all those students and committees who work- ed so diligently to make the donre such a success'

English Staff Signs Fulbright Scholar
Longwood's English Department is going to received added impetus as well as a competent addition to their staff in the fall. The new motivating force and addition are one in the same presented as Dr. Alexander Thereux, a graduate of the University of Vir- ginia and a Fulbright Scholar. Dr. Thereux was honored with the Ful- bright fellowship last spring, when he proved in a recommended competition that he had great potential for scholar- ship and leadership. Under the grant, Dr. Thereux is being paid to study abroad for a year. He is presently studying an England, where he has lectured at the University of London.
WRITING NOVEL
He is also working on a novel, and planning a trip to tour the United Kingdom. When joining the Longwood staff, in the fall Dr. Thereux will be hired as an Associate Professor. It is thought now, that his course schedule will include courses in the Modern British Novel, a survey of Yeats and Joyce for graduate study, English 212, Freshman English, English 300, and Modern Poetry. It is certainly a pleas- ure and an honor for Longwood that Dr. Thereux has agreed to become a mem- ber of the faculty.

By LINDA SHEPHERD Many's the time that a Longwood
Lady has attended Rotunda Sings and sung of her desire to "be in that number when Longwood goes co-ed."
This semester, it might appear that the rain-dances and chants sung around Joan of Arc in the Rotunda have brought results, for a large number of Hamp- den-Sydney students have appeared in Longwood's classrooms.
The registrar's office lists 108 H-S students enrolled in classes at Long- wood. In addition, there are about 14 Longwood students enrolled in H-S classes.
This exchange began last year, aim- ing to provide students of both schools with the opportunity to take classes not offered in their own systems.
Mr. Harold K. Magnusson, Long- wood registrar, commented on the system, saying, "This is a coopera- tive endeavor. I think it will benefit more and more students from both schools in the future. We will give full credit for any course taken at Hamp- den-Sydney."
Most H-S students are enrolled in the History and Social Science Depart- ment in courses ranging from Geogra- phy to Economic History to Anthropplo- gy. There are also several H-S stu- dents taking courses in Education, Bi- ology, English, Foreign Language, Mu- sic, and Business Education.
The majority of Longwood students at H-S are enrolled in Foreign Lan- guage courses and a few are in Com- puter Mathematics.
There has been much speculation as to the motives of these men in coming to Longwood. Many rumors that they are seeking an easy grade seem
Barter To Present Dos Passos' "USA."
The Barter Players, a nationally acclaimed troupe, will present "USA," the fourth program of the Artists' Series, tomorrow night at 7:30 p.m. in Jarman.
A dramatization by Paul Shyre and John D is Passos based on the novel by Joh^Dos Passos, "USA" isa "pan- oramic view of life in the United States from the beginning of this century up to the 1930's," says Mr. Charles E. Butler, chairman of the Artists' Se- ries Committee. It had a long run in New York a few years ago and was highly praised by drama critics.
The home of the Barter Players at Abingdon, Va., is the South's oldest and largest professional theatre. It was designated in 1946 the State Theater of Virginia, the first and only state-subsi- dized theater. They maintain at Abing- 'I ii the largest professional company in C Dtlnuotil operation outside New York.
to be high on the list of reasons. An H-S student in Mr. Mortimer's
Political Geography class, enrollment: 19 males, five females, commented on his motives.
He identified himself only as Har- low Farquatz.
"We expected a whole roomful of girls when we arrived. We were kind of surprised to find only five girls in the class." Relatively few Longwood students would have guessed the above as a reason for their taking courses here.
When asked how he felt about classes here, Farquatz remarked, "We like it, it's a good change. We need more co- operation."
Contrary to popular belief on cam- pus, the H-S students appeared to be a little worried about their performance in the courses.
Farquatz expressed this concern as he revealed that he is "a little worried about the course. That first test is going to be interesting."
One of the few girls in the class agrees that they are concerned. Several of them have asked her how to get a good grade in the course and all seem to be uneasy about the tests. "They all seem to be worried about the course. Just what have they gotten into?"
She feels that the H-S students are an asset to the class because of "the masculine viewpoints that they've got- ten out of the political science courses at H-S. It really adds to the class." These viewpoints are brought up in class discussions which are usually started by the male members of the
class." They ask questions more than we do,' remarked one of the girls. "That's good."
Last week, Mr. Mortimer showed a Dutch travelogue film to the class. The film is designed to introduce the viewer to Dutch women.
"There's not much political ge- ography, gentlemen, but we'll stretch the point. It's a treat - if you like to see girls."
There was a small laugh throughout the male side of the room after this introduction. From the female side came an under-the-breath "Are you kidding me?"
The atmosphere in this largely male class is surprisingly typical of any other class except all five girls are neatly attired and wear make-up to class. There was not one pair of knee socks or saddle shoes present, not even one gym suit.
Co-educational classrooms are not new to Longwood. Men have been at- tending summer and night classeshere since. 1930
In 1946, the GI bill brought 22 men to Longwood as full time fall students. For the first time, Longwood was a co- educational school.
Between 1965 and 1966, the last man completed the requirements for a de- gree from Longwood, ending its life as a co-ed school.
Current trends lean toward the co- educational institution, with even the stalwart University of Virginia begin- ning to liberalize its views on admis- sions. In the meantime, Longwood is reacquainting herself with the male viewpoint, just in case!

Mrs. tiril'l'in. head of the home economies department, reviews schedule ol conference.
The H20 and Corkettes club are presenting their annual Water Show March 19, 20, 21 and 22. This year it is entitled "Natatorial Mythology." Each group represents in their routine a certain god or goddess. Under the direction of Dr. Smith, the girls have been practicing since the beginning of the year for this show. They pra i every night and the practices consist of learning group routines and even new stunts. Anne Bishop, Bonnie Wal- ton, Barbara Carr, Candy Dickerman, Frances Bain and Dr. Smith are among the writers of the routines. The girls are divided into a group and are re- quired to learn the routine of that group. The show is presented elabor- ately, with costumes, light effects, and scenery, all to make a story in the water.

Synchronized swimming is a beauti- ful form of swimming which consists of the utmost body control in the water in performing ballet stunts. The stunts are coordinated in timing and space with each girl to present an overall pattern effect. In the past, the show has proven to be a great success and Dr. Smith has confidence that this year's show will be even better. The tickets will be $.50 and may be ob- tained from any H-20 or Corkette members. So be sure to buyyourticket and your date is invited also. Come out and see the water show this year and see what other things can be done in the water aside from the traditional swim or sink routines most of us ex- perience at the beach or pool during the summer. You think you can't swim now, try some of the things these girls do and you know you can't swim!

Banquet Held By Home Ec. Club By LINDA FLOYD
On Tuesday, February 18, 1969, the scene in the Tea Room was the 13th aimual banquet of the Home Economics Club. Wednesday, February 26, 1969, Kappa Omicron Phi, the Home Eco- nomics honorary held a panel dis- cussion in the Home Economics build- ing.
Dr. Etheridge, of the History De- partment, addressed the banquet gath- ering. Her topic was "Of Time and Fashion or is the Mini Skirt a Tribal Costume."' The down-to-earth speech vividly described fashions through the ages, including our very own mini skirt.
During the evening the Home Eco- nomics Club presented their spon- sor, Miss Bernard, with a gold charm bracelet as a token of their apprecia- tion for her work with the club.
This year, for the first time, col- lege students majoring in home eco-
nomics are allowed to have affiliate membership in the American Home Economics Association, a profession- al organization for those engaged in the field of home economics. In honor of this milestone and in honor of the new home economics building to be opened on the Longwood College cam- pus in 1970, a plaque was presented to Mrs. Griffin, chairman of the Home Economics Department. The plaque is a replica of the American Eco- nomics symbol and will be displayed in the new building.
Members of Kappa Omicron Phi and their sponsors, Mrs. Griffin and Miss Bernard, were led in the group discussion by panel members, Terry Knight, Rachel Hall, and Bev Ryder. The discussion centered around "The Future of Home Economics and its Role in Dealing with the Social Chang- es of Today."
